Biography and Career :
Edith Gonzalez was born and raised in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico; she was born into a middle-class family. Ever since she was a young girl, Edith showed a passion for acting. During a visit to Siempre en Domingo, Edith was chosen among the public to interpret a role together with actor Rafael Baledon. From then on she started a career in acting.
At the age of eight, Edith Gonzalez received a role in 1976, having had almost any teachings and experiences as an actress. In 1976, at the age of ten, after having impressed a number of people in the industry, she was offered a role, which she did accept, to
play Betty in the movie El rey de los gorilas.
After having added only two movies to her acting resume, Edith Gonzalez was offered the role of the quintessential spoiled daughter in telenovela Los ricos tambien lloran. At the age of thirteen, Edith won the respect and admiration of many after having only taken part in a small number of movies and television shows. All throughout the 1970`s and 1980`s, she was kept busy, taking part in numerous telenovelas and movies.
In 1993, when she got the offer to play Monica in Corazon salvaje, a Mexican telenovela, she meant to decline on the offer, but after convincing from her brother, Edith Gonzalez accepted the role. The series was critically acclaimed; it also helped revitalize her career in the 1990s.
The series gained so much press from all the speculations that people made about both Edith Gonzalez and her co-starr; while the series was being filmed, it was rumored that she was dating her co-starr Eduardo Palomo; both denied the rumors, stating that they were only friends.
After she finished filming Corazon salvaje, she became a bit selective of the roles she was offered, having appeared in a small number of series and films in a long period of time. In 1997 she acted in La jaula de oro with Saul Lisazo, and in 1999 Nunca te olvidare with Fernando Colunga. While filming the series, it was speculated that she was dating singer Enrique Iglesias, who sang the music theme for Nunca te olvidare. After having finished filming, she decide to take a short break; subsequent to finishing filming, she went to Paris on a vacation, with intentions to practice ballet and her French. Before returning to Mexico, Edith went to the United States to shoot a cosmetic campaign.
Edith Gonzalez returned to acting, taking part in Salome and Aventurera; she became the first Aventurera, a production lead by Carmen Salinas, where she interpreted a woman who was possessive, seductive, and who enjoys the easy life. She has tried to cross-over to the American-film industry, but has had little success; she believes that she has been turned down in the United States as an actress because her physical properties don’t symbolize those of the quintessential Latin woman.
In 2004, Edith Gonzalez had to stop working in Mujer de Madera because of her pregnancy. That same year, she gave birth to a girl, who she ended up naming Constanza.
In 2005, after a short disappearance from the media, Edith Gonzalez released Venus, a lightly scented perfume made from orchid extract.
